If someone were to just hand you one of these systems free and clear which would you pick?

I'd pick the B&W's (I have not listened to either one). I'm basing this purely on the looks of the speakers.

Personally I am a big B&W fan, and if someone was just going to drop one of the 2 in my lap... then I would take the 803's. But I would still want to listen to each to make sure that was the right choice.... Are you now going to give them to me?? Thanks

Probably the B&W's, but in all honesty I would have to give both setups a good listen.

SHines-IT · 12-26-2008, 06:27 AM

The B&W will go with my living room set up and I am sure it sounds better then what I can afford.

plenipote · 12-26-2008, 04:38 PM

I've had it in mind for a long time that if I somehow received a large amount of money that I could spend on my HT, B&Ws are what I would go for, so I choose the B&W setup. Possible Christmas gift?

I listened to B&W before, powered by Balanced Audio Tech 55SE. This is my dream ultimate sound system.

chasswen · 12-26-2008, 04:46 PM

b&w here sweet looking setup. and i afraid to ask how much money.

Sonny · 12-26-2008, 04:50 PM

I have the B&W's , but the others look nice , I'd like to hear them.

Sir Terrence · 12-26-2008, 07:10 PM

I would personally choose the Paradigm package myself. Never been a B&W fan.

Those are two of my favorite loudspeaker companies, but given the choice, I'd grab the B&W 803Ds and run off with them.

Paradigm's reference line is great too, but I personally don't think it matches the detail and balance found in the 803Ds.
